| Published By | Publication Date | Number of Pages |
| BSI | 2014 | 42 |
This European Standard defines the technical specifications and requirements of radiators and convectors to be installed in heating systems in buildings including assessment and verification of constancy of performance.
This European Standard deals with radiators and convectors installed in a permanent manner in construction works, fed with water or steam at temperatures below 120 °C, supplied by a remote energy source.
This European Standard does not apply to independent heating appliances.
This European Standard also defines the additional common data that the manufacturer shall provide with the product in order to ensure the correct application of the products.
